[opencms-dev] Categories: How to handle incompatibilities between older and newer versions

[Paul-Inge Flakstad]

Hi guys and gals,

At some point, I will need to migrate to a newer version of OpenCms thousands of pages that use categories (editor widget + propertyList mapping).

All existing category tags will initially be broken, due to incompatibilities between older and newer versions; Newer versions names category folders ".categories" (changed from "_categories"), and comma-separates multiple categories in propertyList mappings (changed from pipe-separation).

Will I have to adapt everything to the newer version *manually* (i.e. by script), or is there a more elegant solution?

Cheers,
Paul
